wading

Post by lexi »

Hi guys
What is the go when shallow wading with TD42 auto. Is there wading plugs in it like in a Rover or is it just a case of wading and then draining knuckle joints.

There is a small plastic plug fitted to bottom of bell housing, but it dosent make the housing completly sealed as in a Rover.

Breathers are already extended. How is it not sealed like a Rover Woop. You mean the Landy is better or is it just an issue with auto box. It`s` only going into fresh water to launch a boat so may go about axle height.

had my GQ Auto over the bonnet a few times, no issues.

Good diff breathers, good sealed air inlet or snorkel, and you should be ok.
